Terrakinesis

Terrakinesis is the ability to control all geo materials. E.G. ink, earth, rock. Known uses include moving tattoos with the ability to influence physical objects. Samuel appears to have good control over this power seeming to be able destroy half of Sylar using some kind of dust storm, and completely collapse a good sized building. He killed his brother with a small rock that was levitated next to him. He also used rocks to kill Mohinder. When he gives tatoos, he can cause them to turn into , for example, a hand that goes to the throat and chokes the victim. Samuel also can create sinkholes. This power gets stronger the more "Specials" that are within a specific range of the user, in the case of no specials being present, the user is shown to be powerless.
